planning, work, and especially prayer. It is our hope that today’s program affords an
opportunity for us to learn, listen, study, fellowship, and of course, pray. As we gather
to proclaim, “Worthy is the Lamb,” we trust that our time together will provide the tools
to inspire you to make a difference for Jesus.
Even now, as our worship service begins, know that we are praying for you.
May God continue to richly bless you.
Sincerely,
Miguel Mendez

for moral reasoning? Ronald E. Osborn,

book, Humanism and the Death of God:
Searching for the Good After Darwin,
Marx, and Nietzsche (Oxford University
Press), is scheduled for May 7, 2016,
